Summer Fuzz, 2025
Liam Reynolds
oil on Arches paper
9" x 12"
Summer Fuzz by Liam Reynolds is a nostalgic and quietly surreal oil painting that captures the eerie calm of suburban life. A familiar playground scene—complete with slide and beach ball—is set against pastel-toned houses, while a dreamlike billboard floats above, depicting a reclining couple. The tension between the innocent setting and the disjointed imagery evokes a subtle sense of absurdity and emotional distance. With warm tones, playful forms, and underlying introspection, this work appeals to collectors drawn to contemporary art that blurs the line between memory, fantasy, and reality.
Liam Reynolds is a self-taught Ontario artist whose work resists rigid ideas of what art should be. Blending oil, pastel, ink, and sound, he creates contemplative, joyful pieces grounded in freedom, beauty, and conscious living.
